“FEBRUARY 29 AT 3:00 A.M. I WOKE TO THE SOUND OF DRIPPING WATER Just two years ago we bought a totally remodeled condo in Brentwood. Now water was steadily dripping out of my recessed LED ceiling fixture. While awaiting an HOA approved plumber I collected 60 gallons of water in a recycling barrel. It took 36 hours to find the leaking sprinkler system pipe buried in a staircase wall in the floor above us. WHAT TO DO? We called Hannah Pilkington of COMPASS the amazing realtor who had sold us the condo and asked her for referrals. She recommended Nu Environmental for mold testing and CRS Construction for high skill finishing and remodeling. The 1996 iron pipe had been leaking albeit very slowly, for months so THERE WAS MOLD IN THE CEILING, WALLS & WALK-IN CLOSET. I immediately called Joseph Chadarevian the owner of CRS and explained my situation and urgent need for high skill reconstruction in the containment area. He came the very next afternoon and did a walk through and took measurements and samples of the crown moldings and baseboard. I endorsed him to the HOA but needed them to approve. He passed the 3 bid requirement of the HOA with the LOWEST BID! He scheduled Gabriel, his BEST FINISH CARPENTER on hold for me. CRS began their work 14 hours after the mold remediation clearance was confirmed. They had promised completion in 6 days. I didn't believe it possible. But by the second long and productive day I BECANE A BELIEVER! Gabriel was a soft spoken gentleman but he insisted on carrying the 58th inch drywall into my bedroom by himself. He hung the ceiling the next day and was doing first coat spanking third day. INVISIBLE SEAMS. EACH DAY PROMPT ARRIVAL NO COFFEE BREAKS AND MY HOME AND ENTRY WAYS SPOTLESSLY CLEAN! By the fourth day he began replacing the expensive moldings and I was AMAZING JOINERY OF THE FANCY MOLDINGS. The texturizing of the wall paint and perfect edging. I loved their work. EXACTING STANDARDS! FAIR PRICE! BEST INSULATION AND DRYWALL. DUNN EDWARDS PAINTS! THE BEST OF THE BEST! THESE GUYS REPLACED MY NIGHTMARE WITH A BEAUTIFUL DREAM!“
“We were impressed with the #1 quality and assorted floor choices we had to work with from wood, ceramics, porceline, laminate and more. The floor samples were so beautiful and plentiful. Once the selections were made, paid for, appointments and schedules made, the work began. The crew who tore out the old flooring for our living and family rooms performed the demolition in a clean and neat manner. However, the crew made a gross error in that they tore out part of the old flooring from an adjoining guest bathroom, which was not part of the renovation project. The tile was gone and there was nothing that could done. They sanded the concrete where the old vinyl flooring laid and evened the concrete so the new wood would lay evenly. They then proceeded with the installatiion of the wood floor with much precision and expert manner. In almost 3 days the job was complete. They then applied some wax or gel film on to the wood floor. At the end of the day, it was obvious the crew was going to go home, as they thought the job was finished. However, I woud not allow them to leave until the wood floor with the wax or film was cleaned up and I asked them to clean up the floor as the floor was unacceptable that way. Their supervisor, an elderly with a heavy accent, arrived to collect payment for the job. I told him I was very displeased with the way the floor was looking with all the greasy waxy look. He said that was from the glue the guys used to glue down the engineered wood. I asked him to get the guys to clean up the waxy film on the wood. He said it was my job to clean that up. I told him I was not going to accept that it was my job to clean up the floor. He was unreasonable and rude. I would not recommend that supervisor. Fortunately, the young men who worked for him cared for the work they did. The wood floor was beautiful but we thought the job was expensive.“

“We have used Shawn Ryan Construction for two major projects after a referral from a long time friend. Shawn responded to our needs quickly and was cost competitive for both projects. The first project was the refurbishment of a multilevel townhome rental property. Shawn and his crew removed "popcorn" ceiling material and resurfaced the ceilings, made structural repairs, changed bathroom fixtures, installed new lighting, and painted the entire interior. The second project was at our home and involved the repair of an interior water damaged wall that also required extensive repair of the adjoining outside wall. Shawn and his crew were punctual, professional, and performed excellent workmanship. I would not hesitate to recommend Shawn Ryan Construction to my family, friends, and anyone needing construction services.“
